really michelle obama is taking the lead here. she's meeting with all these ioc folks and like your commentator said there, there's nobody bigger than oprah winfrey. i think the trip is nine hours one way. the presentation is about 45 minutes. he'll be speaking for about five minutes, and head back to washington on friday. >> as long as he works on health care and afghanistan on the plane, we'll be fine. bob, what's your issue with this? >> there are a lot of issues in chicago that need to be dealt with. i was at acommunity meeting this weekend. students were talking about the fact that they have school books from 1986, a tram system that's crumbling, a budget deficit next year that will be worse than the budget deficit this year and olympics, we don't think, is the solution to this. >> doesn't have the olympics in your town fix a lot of these things? isn't it that it attracts the infrastructure investment in the train, in the city, all the things that you saw sort of come through atlanta, the pitch out of new york? why does that
